It used to be the "You're grumpy cause you sit on the computer for 17 hours a day". That phase has gone, now it's "You've gotta do something other than the computer all day".
But, I bought my computers, pay for the internet, so stuff is cash.
And yeah, I hate the "Back when I was growing up". My father does it all the time. Yes, you didn't have computers. But I'm sure you had something that the previous generation didn't have. Stuff evolves, if it didn't, we'd be living in caves.
While I'm on this subject, I also hate it how old people say things like "Your music is garbage. Listen to something proper, like the music around in my day". No. Let ME play this game too. Since that is just your opinion, let me play my opinion too. Your olden day music is stuff, and not proper music.
